Caves Charted In Virginia Reach Near 2000 Mark
Virginia natives and Virginia Tech instructors lead a long running cave survey begun in 1956. John Holsinger directs the effort with VPI’s Bob Whittemore and Ed Morgan. Henry Douglas began the project. They report 1,923 caves mapped, mostly in western Virginia, aiming to exceed 2,000. Findings include shrimplike amphipods and isopods, bats, and occasional snakes. The work, done on private land and rugged terrain, emphasizes academic curiosity and potential groundwater insights for farming.
